Support WIT’s fundraiser: Contribute to our silent auction
Be “all that and a bag of chips”—support WIT’s 90s-themed fundraiser This Is How We Do WIT, which will be held June 16 at the Asian Fusion Gallery.
You can support the event by donating an item to our silent auction! The silent auction is a key part of our event, featuring a myriad of items and experiences provided by local businesses and members of the WIT community. We need your help in approaching businesses you patronize (your yoga studio, your go-to bar) or developing creative new items that you could offer yourself.
What are possible auction items?
- A gift card to a business or restaurant (if you’re a regular somewhere, ask if they might be willing to make a donation)
- A personal service you can provide (in the past we’ve offered music lessons, cooking classes, graphic design services)
- An improv-related service (like coaching) or “out of the box” experience (one time the ladies of former ensemble Love Onion stepped forward “become your Grandmas” for an afternoon)
Need help brainstorming? Check out the auction items from our last fundraiser.
You can use this formal request letter to share more information about WIT and the event. Please submit your event by May 31.
Got an idea? You can always email External Relations Director Dan Miller (dan@witdc.org) to get input on an idea or check to see if we’ve already approached the business you’re thinking of. Otherwise, you can submit the item now!
